Abstract
A compressor according to the principles of the present disclosure includes a shell, a compression mechanism, a driveshaft, a drive bearing cavity, and a drive bearing. The compression mechanism is disposed within the shell and includes an orbiting scroll member and a non-orbiting scroll member. The orbiting scroll member includes a baseplate and a tubular portion extending axially from the baseplate. The driveshaft is drivingly engaged with the orbiting scroll member. The drive bearing cavity is disposed between an outer radial surface of the driveshaft and an inner radial surface of the tubular portion of the orbiting scroll member. The baseplate of the orbiting scroll member defines a first discharge passage in fluid communication with the drive bearing cavity. The drive bearing is disposed in the drive bearing cavity and is disposed about the driveshaft adjacent to the first end of the driveshaft.
